What can I say, I’m huge fan of the YCRS program. I knew I needed a tune up. It was a great opportunity, I had the time, I had the cash, and I really wanted to get on HPR again. Perfect!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I drove up there the day before, after I finished at work. I would have rather had the day off, but since the gates weren’t open for the us to go in and set up it didn’t’ matter really when I got there. I took my time, I still arrived at the track with enough time to get a good nights sleep. I brought Sable with me, this would be her fourth trip with me in the trailer. The first two were to T or C to play around on the dirt bikes. The third was to the Endro in Farmington. This would be her first trip in the truck that was over 3 hours, she travels well, she seems to really enjoy the new locations. Just like the other trips she was a champ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When the gates opened in the morning, we all filed in. I picked a spot in the carports, of course, that way I could avoid running my generator. I find it annoying, I know by now it should be background noise at the track, but it just irritates me. Than it was time to get the bike unloaded, get everything together so that I had the things I needed where I wanted them. You know, how it is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I really enjoy doing schools on the bike. The feedback is so useful, lets me know if I’ve gotten away from where I should be with the riding. This one helped me figure out why I’m having issues with dropping laptimes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It comes down to EYES… It was the last two sessions of the day for me, I had Chris Peris working with me for them. He asked me to go back out and to pay attention to where I was getting to full throttle and when in the turn did I see my exits? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After two laps I figured out that I wasn’t getting 100% throttle anywhere but the front straight, second I wasn’t seeing the exits until I was passed my apexes. Sigh, it makes so much sense now as to why I’m not dropping my times like they should be. I have a major thing to work on now for a while. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was telling Jim about this revelation that I had at the track. He was quick to point out that he’d been fussing at me for the same things on our dirt rides. doh… He has too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
